Yesssss.
Why can't a current card company license the dufex technology? They have people. They can do this. I swear, if Panini brought back Dufex, they would outsell Topps!
Today's "fun" fact:
At 4-24, the 2025 Rockies now own the worst start to any season in 149 years of National League history.
*Correction: They now sit at 4-25. Which in case you're bad at math, is STILL the worst start to any season in 149 years of National League history :-)
Rick Face really wasn't an MLB hitter. I always found that fascinating how two brothers - not too far apart in age - could be so wildly different in their abilities at the same thing.
But then again, I think of my own family and it starts to make sense. I have relatives who are just...
I've started thinking about the 1988 Orioles. That team started the season 0-21.
Of course 4-23 is not in the same discussion as 0-21, but it is in the same zip code.
This is what we have been reduced to, people.
Well, they now stand at 4-20 on the season after getting swept in a doubleheader against KC. If they keep up this pace they'll end up at 27-135.
Of course they'll eventually win more than 27 games, but it's "interesting" to think about. At 27 wins, that would represent the second worst season...
Good news. The Rockies did not lose today!
Their game against KC was postponed.
In other news they still sit at 4-18, a .182 winning percentage. And still have the worst run differential in MLB at -52, which is a full 19 runs worse than the White Sox.
But how did you pull that out of your behind? I've always been curious about your name. It cannot have been totally random right? So what's the genesis of zyceoa?
This one is slightly less PUMPED UP than the RED CRUSADE. But hey, it's still worthy. The 2002 Topps Chrome Black Refractor team card.
Not surprisingly this was kinda hard to find. Not only is it #/ed to 50, but because it's a team card it could be listed under the team name, the card number...
Ja girlies! Hear me now and believe me later! Get out of your flab hammocks and acknowledge ze pumpitude!
Steven Seagal has some work to do to recognize, you know. He has become so flabby and untalented and lame in his old age.
Honestly, I'm not sure how I feel about those new unis. Kinda cool? Kinda too hip? Kinda too Miami Beach? I just dunno.
But I do know one thing for a fact. The Rockies did NOT lose tonight!
That's because their game was postponed. We had snow here all day. But a day without a Rockies loss is a...
Honestly, I'm not sure how I feel about those new unis. Kinda cool? Kinda too hip? Kinda too Miami Beach? I just dunno.
But I do know one thing for a fact. The Rockies did NOT lose tonight! Yeah!
Their game was postponed. We had snow here all day. But a day without a Rockies loss is a win baby!
I read that Meulens was a hitting coach with the Giants during three seasons when they won the world series. So I'm sure getting rid of him will be just what the doctor ordered.
At least you'll get to see the Mets win a game in Denver here in a few weeks. If you're a betting man, you know...
Today is a good news bad news day.
Good news is the Rox scored 7 runs. That's a good output, and more than they've scored in any other game this season.
Base news is the Dodgers scored 8 runs. And therefore swept the Colorado Rockies.
Here's the thing with bad teams. Now and then they'll...
I seem to remember at least one FCB member with Rockies in his screen name. And perhaps one other Rockies fan as well? Or maybe I'm making that up, since I haven't seen them post for a long time.
So yeah it'll mostly be just me venting on this thread. At least until my usual apathy returns, and...
Yeah that's true. And in all honesty I don't think the Rockies will really beat their all time worst season record by 10 losses.
But I really made this thread for just to hate on this franchise. This damned franchise, and its utterly incompetent owner, who have flatly refused to bring good...
Under.
Not only are the Rox heading toward their worst start in franchise history, they are also leading the NL in errors.
Edit: I meant over! I read the question and then my pea brain translated it as over/under on WINS not losses. I will take the under on wins and over on losses :-)
For some reason I'm listening to the game tonight on the radio. I don't mind Jerry Schemel, but our other guy Jack Corrigan drives me nuts. Something about the cadence of his call, and especially the intonation. I know it's picky, but I like listening to games on the radio. And there are local...
The Rockies just got swept by the Padres in a 3-game series.
But they didn't just get swept, they got shut out in all three games, with their hitters producing 9 hits in 27 innings of "major league" baseball.
On the plus side, it's nice to see the Padres playing this well. I've always had a...
